Libvlc micro lag while playing

Hello, I'm facing micro-lag while reproducing stream video (usually in ts format) using libvlc for android.
I tried change some settings (options) and something seems to go better but not perfect, I try also leaving all the settings as default by passing no options to the libvlc istance but it is not better.
Do you have any suggestions regarding the options that should improve playback performance?

Thank you

What do you mean by micro-lag?
I mean that the while the video play you see some block and the video is not smooth, on the same device using other video players the video is smooth.
Is there something to check?

The same video on the same device play smoothly if I use the standard Android MediaPlayer , otherwise if I use the libvlc it is not smooth , you can see some block on fast scenes . Any idea how this could be solved ? The same thing happens if I use android vlc video player, but if I use MX player with hw+ enabled it plays perfectly .
Is there a way to make vlc or libvlc play smoothly ?
The device is an octa-core so it is a good performance device

No One has an idea on how to speed up video playback with libvlc ? Even creating an instance without options the playback is not smooth with live streaming :-(
